A one-day fishing permit for the whole family here costs less than a kilo of fresh salmon and you never know, one of the kids might land a monster. But kids don’t care how big the fish is – as long as there are plenty of them. The thrill and shrieks of delight when they bag their first catch is unforgettable.

Toddlers love being close to water, so whether you are out hiking with the kids in the forest and mountains in the north of the country, or staying in a cottage beside a lake or the sea in the south, east or west of the country, you can easily spend a morning or afternoon fishing. Just for your info there are some 37 species of fish in Sweden, and the kids are likely to catch perch, roach and carp almost anywhere in the country.
Imagine yourself sitting at the end of a pier on the sunny west coast in summertime with the little nippers contentedly fishing for crab. They’re happy, you’re happy and you’ve given them a memory for the rest of their lives.
Kids in the Swedish mountains? You bet – they love it. The Swedish mountains form the backbone of the country in the west, starting in the province of Dalarna, and stretching all the way up, above the Arctic Circle and into magical Lapland - the land of the Midnight Sun and the Northern Lights. It has to be mentioned that the legendary Abisko National Park is here, as is Saltoluokta mountain station. Both offer special guided tours and activities just for kids.
Southern Sweden is both a convenient and an exciting destination if you´re travelling with the whole family. Distances are short, with lots to see and enjoy within easy reach. Wherever you go in southern Sweden, you have a wide choice of accommodation, from large family-friendly hotels to simple, moderately priced B&B’s, hostels and campgrounds.
Sweden is a paradise for the angler, with the lure of giant fish, unspoiled countryside and clean, unpolluted waters. The thrill of being able to catch fish in their natural environments, and on their terms, is the fulfilment of many a visiting angler's dream in Sweden.
Pleasures and fun with no age limit.
